Over the years, Memorial Day has become a day to shop for a bargain, get a day off work or have a cookout, but this special day was created honor the people who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. 

The Missing Dreams Project is a special recognition for our New Jersey service man and women who have died in service of the United States of America.  Volunteers for the South Jersey Field of Dreams (a baseball field and park for physically and mentally challenged youngsters) in Absecon have placed more than 15,000 American flags all over the field to represent each one of ourNew Jersey heroes who never realized their dreams. The final flags will be placed on the field on Memorial day at 11:30 after the parade in Absecon. This "Field of Flags" will remain in place until May 28.  To find out more or make a donation go www.sjfieldofdreams.com.  Let's honor these brave men and women by visiting the Field of Dreams and observing the true meaning of Memorial Day.
